Read the rough draft of a student’s conclusion to an argumentative editorial. (1) Year-round schooling would help student achiev

ement. (2) Not so much information would have to be crammed into nine months. (3) Furthermore, the elimination of long breaks, particularly summer break, would significantly reduce "learning loss” and the additional time wasted at the beginning of each academic year to reteach previously learned material. (4) It is clear that year-round schooling helps students learn and retain more. (5) The United States is not the only country to experiment with a year-round school schedule. (6) Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, these people need to open their eyes and see that students in these schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars. (7) It is about time that we replaced our outdated and inefficient school calendars. Why should sentence 4 be removed from this conclusion? It criticizes those who disagree with the writer. It strengthens the viewpoint of the opposition. It states a fact that is unrelated to the topic. It unnecessarily restates the editorial’s claim.

This statement should be omitted from the editorial since it repeats the argument that the United States should abandon nine-month school calendars in favor of year-round schooling. Additionally, in sentence 1, it should either be (help enhance a student's achievement) or (assist students in achieving success).

hammer [7621]
The statement is an understatement since he claims he "does not write all that much." This kind of understatement in his brief autobiographical essay reflects a tone similar to that found in "There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella."

An understatement serves as a literary device where authors portray an occurrence as less significant than it truly is.

Naddika [7460]

Response:

"They were so joyful," Justin recalls. "It felt surreal for them. Witnessing their happiness was uplifting for me."

Detailed explanation:

The moment that illustrates Justin Lebo's caring nature is when he experienced joy and fulfillment after distributing bikes and observing their excitement.

At just ten years old, Justin showed empathy for those in need. He enjoyed biking himself, and felt compassion for the boys in Kilbarchan, leading him to donate bicycles to them. His thoughtful act was greatly valued, further motivating him to continue helping.

seraphim [7410]

Answer:

Political revolt is a contemporary topic of significance because it resonates with readers who can relate to the narratives presented in these stories.

Explanation:

Political matters have historically led to divisions, from the time of Shakespeare to now. This division can trigger coups and unrest within nations, fundamentally altering citizens' lives. Such events can unfold in any nation at any moment, which is why the themes of political upheaval found in Shakespeare’s works remain pertinent; audiences can connect with these scenarios as they reflect very real circumstances.
